Notes

Once a single family home, Chalstrom House now serves as a Parish House for St. Andrew's, housing parish offices and hosting parish community meetings of all types. St. Andrew's Church family has opened the doors of Chalstrom House to share their space with volunteers traveling to the New Orleans area to work in disaster relief.

Space available to volunteers includes sleeping space for 15 beds, a kitchen and 3 full baths. There is common area in Chalstrom House that is available to volunteer groups when St. Andrew's doesn't already have it reserved.

Army beds with foam mattresses are provided for each resident. When staying in this house, individuals will need to bring sleeping bag/bedding, pillow and pillow case and personal items.

As in all of our volunteer housing spaces, volunteers are responsible for their own meals and transportation. When teams are scheduled into Chalstrom House, they will be provided with more detailed information on the house as well as a variety of resources (grocery, laundry, restaurants, etc.) are nearby, most within walking distance.
